Dateline Alamo, North Dakota, Fall 1967Nothing like a bonfire to take the chill off a cool fall evening on the night before the big game. Virgil Bleken is front and center, but who are the rest? Were you there for the big fire?

I graduated in 67 but must not have been present! I missed alot of things I think...where was this at David??
the year after you left, and during the reign of the finest class of all - the graduating class of 1968.
I see Vigil hauling something to toss on the fire.. tooo funny. I remember piling up tires and burning them while on the ice of cotton wood lake. funny we didn't burn right through the ice..
Dennis, now why did you not come to our defense???? WE were the finest class to arise from Alamo High!!! The class of 67!
Now about that fire...when I enlarged it it became even more clear just how large that puppy was! Good grief...sure amazing they never burned the town down! And yes Dennis, I have often wondered why we did not just go down to the bottom of the lake with those big fires on there...I have never figured that out and they went on for hours!!! There must be some scientific reason that ARchie could tell us I am sure!
well, Janie, I have ALWAYS Felt that the class of 67 was the ultimate group of greenwaves. the quality of the school paper was beyond anything ever published. must have been those meetings I told my mother i needed to go to Alamo for LOL .. Bertha New Better !!!
I think you got by with alot more than that young man~! HA!
I never seemed to do anything to fun while going to school...seems it was all business for me. When I hear the stories and see the pictures I always have to ask...where the heck was I!!! Ha! I think that the span of the grades ahead of us and the one behind us like 65-68 was comprised of some exceptional kids who excelled. I believe other schools say the same thing about those years...we were just lucky to be amongst them...I feel blest to have grown up where I did at the time I did...today it might not be as swell as it was then.
